Finally done

While we were cleaning and rearranging in the shop we ran across this old ticket my friend Dick Evans had written Bev and Michelle.  Dick was a Cowlitz County sheriffs deputy who flew radio control with me.  He was working that day but stopped by to visit, he slipped this on the girls bicycle as he was leaving.  The girls were a little upset until we convinced them it was a joke.
This is how the closet turned out.  I haven't had this much room to move around in a long time.  We sorted and cleaned up a lot of stuff.  I threw away quite a few things that just aren't used anymore.
The North bench hasn't looked this good in a long time.  You can see my next project on the other bench.
I started on the stab of the Airacobra this evening.  I got some of the ribs cut out.  This is an older kit that was manufactured before laser cutting.  The parts have been die cut and I have to go over most of the cutting with a knife to get the parts out.  I am building this plane for a balsa build challenge the Shelton club is putting on.  You post pictures of the build on their Facebook site and then this spring they have a day for first flights on all the planes entered.  If you make a flight, your name goes into the hat and at the end of the day they draw out names for prizes.
